Způsob a kritéria hodnocení

Requirements for completion of a course are specified by a regulation issued by the lecturer responsible for the course and updated for every year.
- 30 points can be obtained for activity in the laboratory exercises, consisting in solving tasks (for the procedure for the examination must be obtained at least 15 points)
- 70 points can be obtained for the written exam (the written examination is necessary to obtain at least 35 points)
